Jamie Agnello, "who is a human, not a puppet (New York Times)," is a curious and creative human who lives in Pittsburgh, PA. She's currently learning how to use her 35 mm Pentax K1000, the ins-and-outs of gardening, and is always juggling reading a bunch of books at once.
She is also a proud member of Actors Equity Association. Recent credits include Mother in A Christmas Story: The Play (Pittsburgh Public Theater), Genevieve in Plano (Quantum Theater), Trinculo in The Tempest (Pittsburgh Public Theater), Mary Shelley in Midnight Radio: Frankenstein (Bricolage Production Company) and lots of screen time with Pittsburgh Public Theater’s PLAYTIME streaming series in 2020-2021 (Lysistrata, The Rivals, Much Ado About Nothing, The Inseparables). Jamie has also appeared at Lincoln Center Education (Up and Away, The Big Umbrella Festival), St. Ann’s Warehouse, LaMaMa, Dixon Place, University Settlement, and the Park Avenue Armory. She has traveled to the NYC, Atlanta, and Cincinnati Fringe Festivals with Woody vs. Mia vs. Gwyneth vs. Coldplay (a tragedy game show about breakups). Bonus points if you can spot her in her best cult-y orange cashmere in the new Netflix series Archive 81.
She's currently working as a puppeteer on the YouTube series Cai & Kate, a new initiative from Allegheny Health Network's The Chill Project. The YouTube series features a human host and her chameleon pal Cai as they teach preschoolers how to identify and regulate their emotions. Episodes will drop once a month! Share & subscribe with your fav kiddos...or legit just try some bubble breathing for yourself.
Jamie is proud of being a master at pivoting and learning new things! Over the years, she's worked as a server in the restaurant industry, as a floral designer, the director of an arts-based summer camp, a graduate hall director, a cupcake baker, a realtor, a travel blogger and industry professional, a college radio DJ, and as a puppeteer and teaching artist. Her breadth of experiences makes her an expert team player, wearer-of-many hats, and down to tackle challenges with enthusiasm and creativity.
A natural performer, she approaches the world with an open heart and mind.
